Woman in culture: gender and ethnicity
Part three

Abstract. This article is the end of a series of publications devoted to the place of women in the culture of the past and the present. The article deals with the gender inequality of women in the context of ethnic "otherness", which enhances its subordinate status in traditional cultures. The article deals with the representation of women who challenge the norms and values of Patriarchy, which leads to marginalization or exclusion from the dominant culture. The change of attitude towards women in traditional culture is connected both with sociocultural changes of the second half of the 20th century and with postcolonial studies that rehabilitated gender "otherness", legitimizing the subjective status of both gender and ethnic Other.

Keywords. Gender, ethnicity, Other, culture, representation, creativity.
